1. Admissions Process
The ILBC International School system emphasizes clear expectations and careful placement. Prospective students and parents should become familiar with the school program, facilities, and student expectations, as ILBC maintains high academic standards and promotes Myanmar cultural appreciation and personal development. Admission is based on a review of records, past performance, age, maturity, class numbers, and acceptable performance on the school's screening assessments. This means that where a class has limited numbers, placement decisions are influenced by both prior records and how a student performs in screening tasks.
2. Documents Needed for Admission
Families must prepare a set of documents to accompany the online application. Required items include a completed online admission form, school records (report cards, transcripts, certificates, test scores), a copy of the passport for international students, and proof that all required fees have been paid (billing form completed). Having these documents ready helps the school verify prior academic history and eligibility quickly.
3. Online Application and Fees
Parents should submit the online admission form and attach available school records and standardized test results when possible. The school reserves the right to request copies of student records before enrollment. Health records must be provided, and immunizations should align with school policy; the medical team will assess the student's suitability for ILBC. In addition to application steps, certain fees apply early in the process: a placement test fee and admission fees for new or returning students.
4. Screening, Health, and Placement
All applicants take a screening assessment to determine the best placement within the school. The screening includes a writing sample, a math test, and an informal interview to assess reading, speaking, and listening skills. Parents and students should read the Student Manual and the School Rules & Regulations to understand expectations and policies before joining. Health records and immunization status are reviewed as part of the intake process, and the school medical team evaluates suitability for admission.
5. Readings and Final Steps
As part of the admissions finish-line, both parents and students are expected to read and be well acquainted with the student manual and school rules and regulations contained in the admission materials. This ensures that families understand policies on behavior, attendance, assessments, and overall school expectations. Once the screening and health checks are complete and all documents are reviewed, the school will communicate next steps
